My 14 yr old grandson and I are heading out from SC in about a month- first stop is Cape Canaveral to watch a Saturn V rocket launch.
Then we'll be heading west- he wants to go to "deserts"......really?? in the middle of summer??
We hit Death Valley a few years ago when it was 128F- not fun IMO. Glad we did but don't want to do it again. That was on an almost 10,000 mi month long trip where we hit 11 National Parks.
Will be in a 4wd Crew Cab 6.5 bed F150 with a 2.5" front lift and full skid plates, toting an ATC Panther.
Would prefer to do all dispersed camping- we'll see. Last year was pretty crowded even with covid.
I expect it to be worse this year.
Any suggestions on high desert areas that wouldn't be so blame hot?
